I have been looking at 152/172's for a while now and am having a hell of a time figuring out wich one is better for what I want. The 4 people that will be in the plane, Me 165 pounds wife 140 pounds son 30 pounds daughter 25 pounds. Most people say just go with the 172 it will be a lot better. I am all about most amout of flying with fixed Budget ($10,000 a year) Crunching numbers the 152 will spend about 37% more time in the air than the 172 on the same money. Any opinions would be great thanks.
